This simple statistical solitaire game gives you the chance to replay any final phase of a Soccer World Cup from the first edition (1930) to the last played (2006).
In the Team Data Sheet for each Final Tournament each team is rated for Attack, Defence, Killer Instinct, Tradition (a modified Historical Ranking, taking in account even previous Tournaments) and Third Die.
Designer note: Soccer has changed a lot from 1930 to 2010 and as we have seen in the last few editions of the World Cup, it is not so probable to have dozens of goals scored against one very feeble team; and in a match between two teams of equal value, especially in an elimination game, it is more probable a result of 1-0 than a 5-4. So we have used a slightly modified ratio for the different editions of the World Cup, to try to obtain more historical results for each edition. |
